This happens daily in radiology departments around the world

Aren’t radiologists dictating notes rather than issuing commands to the computer? From supporting them for a few years, I recall them having pretty good facility using the computer to zoom/filter/isolate parts of images, and most of the muttering was speech to text or a good old tape recorder for their writeups.

  • The dictation happens while reviewing images and the dictation software includes support for voice macros ranging from edits to adding information from the chart and other applications. Not quite the same as just recording.
